Probably because they're easily stolen and popular for fraud.

I'm never going to blame someone for not trusting credit cards. Only if you don't trust them, you should offer a better alternative.

The issue is not trusting credit cars, but how you handle suspected fraud.

Google should know that credit cards can get leaked/stolen. Suspending an account without notification is not the right solution. At least give the customer a chance to defend itself, change payment methods or switch to a different platform.

Totally agree. If they don't trust credit cards, they shouldn't keep customers in the dark and then cancel them out of nowhere, they should offer a better alternative. Treating paying customers like that is terrible in every possible way. The mistake is entirely Google's.
